Peer Evaluate

Peer Evaluations take place every two years. Care Leavers National Movement (CLNM) reps are trained as Peer Researchers. They plan, execute and analyse the research, considering how the National House Project (NHP) ORCHIDS framework is working in Local House Projects (LHPs). They then develop recommendations based on the research. In the alternate years, CLNM work on implementing the recommendations from the Peer Evaluation. In 2024, the recommendations were written into a booklet. Read more from CLNM’s Peer Evaluations below.

2025 2025 is a Peer Evaluation year. A group of CLNM reps will be trained as Peer Researchers and will conduct the research in the first half of the year. They will then analyse the research and put recommendations in place to be shared at the CLNM Conference later in the year.

2024 In 2024 CLNM reps worked on the recommendations from the 2023 Peer Evaluation. Their work was compiled into a Recommendations Guide for the first time.

2023 In 2023 CLNM’s Peer Evaluation focused on Ownership, Home and Sense of Wellbeing.

2021 In 2021 CLNM’s Peer Evaluation focused on Community, Responsibility, Sense of Direction and Independence. The final two are now called ‘Developing Direction’ and ‘Interdependence’ based on research and feedback.

CLNM continue to Peer Evaluate LHPs and implement recommendations to improve House Project for all young people. You can follow CLNM on social media and sign up for the newsletter to stay up to date.
